It's a three way battle for the Digicel Fiji 7's playmaker's position as the selectors try and finalize the team to the New Zealand and USA 7's by Friday.

Current play maker, Mitieli Nacagilevu leads the race with former 7's rep Ilai Tinai trying to make a comeback while Red Rock's Peni Gaunimeke's performnace in last week's Uprising International 7's could get him the nod.

Nacagilevu plays fullback for Nadroga and was the first choice play maker in the last leg of the IRB 7's series and is expected to face tough competition since both Tinai and Gaunimeke are specialists in the position.

Coach Iliesa Tanivula will spend the next few days analysing his options and said it will be a tough call to make.
